I have had an odd thing happening lately on my SDS100 if not used for a couple of days. When powering on, it shows nothing to scan. I have to go into the set scan mey and turn on the systems manually. They had been on when last powered down. It works fine once I do this but just wondering if this is a precursor to something bigger?
Thank you
That sounds like the scanner is not saving its configuration to the memory card.
I would connect the scanner to your PC & select Mass Storage mode.
To make sure that all the Favorites lists on the scanner are duplicated in Sentinel, then read the scanner into the software.
Once you've done that, with the scanner still in mass storage mode, I would suggest formatting the card. If you have not already saved the this, use the formatted at this link:
SD Memory Card Formatter | SD Association
After formatting the card, with the scanner still in mass storage mode, use the 'Clear User Data' link under the drop-down Scanner menu in Sentinel. That creates the folder structure needed to use the card.
Then, use your profile to reload Favorites lists and the database back to the scanner's card.
Of course, if you already have a spare card set up, you can simply change out the one in the scanner.
If formatting & re-loading the card does not help, I'd try another card before resorting to sending it in for repair.
